Thanks for joining EDM Charts for the 2012 End of the Year Countdown of the Top 10 Trance Tracks. As we all get ready to welcome in 2013, it’s time to reflect on what was accomplished in 2012. Read up on the top tracks and also take a listen to the mix with additional commentary on the Soundcloud link within the article.

Description: There’s no argument this year that hands down “Concrete Angel” is the top trance track of 2012. This specific remix by Irishman John O’Callaghan adds a separate piano bridge and is sped up to O’Callaghan’s tailored style. Christina Novelli’s vocals are perfect and help bring the track to life. There’s no wonder why Gareth Emery is consistently in top #20 grouping of DJs.

Description: After Above & Beyond’s massive album release of Group Therapy, “Alchemy” is one single that really stood out. Thanks to Hungarian producers Myon & Shane 54, their new remix is killer. It adds a darkened feel to the original which is much more friendly towards a club. Zoe Johnston has become the go to female vocalist for A&B, and she never disappoints, especially not on this #1 single.

Description: Songstress Aruna, teams up with her usual cast (when together known as Velvetine) to pump out a great vocal progressive house/trance track. The melodies and rhythms are gorgeously blended to perfection thanks to the likes of Myon & Shane 54. Aruna is quickly climbing up the charts to be a top 10 EDM vocalist in the game!

1. KASKADE, SKRILLEX “LICK IT” [ORIGINAL MIX] (ULTRA)

Release Date: 2011-11-08

Well, what do we have here? Ah yes, a massive collaboration between Kaskade & Skrillex, on Kaskade’s new album “Fire & Ice”. Simply put, Progressive House meets Dubstep. The best part about the track is the energy behind it. Massive basslines manufactured by Skrillex are smoothly engineered over an instrumental loop by Kaskade. This will surely rock many concerts over this winter.

Afrojack’s newest single is a massive electro-banger, full of funky electronic quirks and tons of bass. Yes, this is the style that we all attribute to the Dutch sensation Afrojack. Having already been picked up on by Pete Tong’s Essential Tune, this track will soon be on the tracklist for many podcasts.

Dada Life’s “Happy Violence” stays in the top #5 for another week. I swear these guys come up with some of the most unique electronic sounds. They must spend a massive time toying around with their MIDI controller and Ableton Live. Fear the DADA!

There isn’t a track out there that defines “global” more than A&B’s new single. First off the vocals are done entirely in Spanish by Miguel Bose. Second, the instrumental has that chill tranquil sound that only A&B can produce. In case you’re wondering the title translates to “Whatever Will Be, Will Be”…or in my tongue “It Is What It Is”.

This is the first time Heatbeat has graced my top #5. It also is the first time an Argentian DJ has made the list (they’re actually a duo made up of Agustin Servente and Matias Faint). What a great trance hit we have here. A melodic intro that’s integrated into a pounding bassline harmonized over by some graceful female vocals. I give many props to Armada’s R&D for finding these guys.

I would like to end this entry by stating, for those who are wondering, that yes Avicii “levels” is not on this week’s list and will not be on any future ones. It was in the top #5 in the beginning of summer. You probably have noticed it “topping” the charts now. The reason being is that it finally was legally released by his new label LE7ELS. Enjoy this week’s list!
